The reasons for the civil war in Sri Lanka between the two communities are given below.
- The civil war in Sri Lanka was primarily brought on by the government's discrimination against Tamils and Sinhalas.
- The country's majority Sinhalese government discriminated against Tamil speakers in Sri Lanka.
- As a result, the Tamil community felt compelled to push for the establishment of a separate state for the island's Tamil-speaking populations in the north and east.
- The Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE) leader Velupillai Prabhakaran and the Sri Lankan Armed Forces engaged in combat.
- After a 26-year military mission, the Sri Lankan Armed Forces decisively defeated the Tamil Tigers in May 2009, which ended the Sri Lankan civil conflict.
